I have always been disappointed with the actual info ATI provided to back up this so called "accurate" test. Fluidamper straight up said, if our parts are inferior, we want to make them better. Here are the results of Fluidampers tests. They actually explain exactly what they did to test the units, what all tests were run, how they were done, what tools were used during the tests and even where they were done. They also test a few different motors. I think there tests speak for themselves dont you?

This is straight BS.

I run Fluidamper and have had no problems with it. Not saying ATI is bad, but there tests to me do not seem accurate. This leads me to believe they altered the tests in some way to try and out sell Fluidamper.

I personally went with the fluidampr. Got it from doublej. Great seller btw. I have been very happy with it. I would wager you would be quite happy with either. Read up on them and make an informed decision, that is what I did.

I heard that you have to keep the fluidampr in an upright position, as if it was mounted on the engine, or it would get bad. Is that true?

ATI 7" steel race version here. I need all the insurance I can get. If you cant decide on fluidampr or ATI, just go inny minny miny mo and get one. Its very important to run one of these.

Great thread, but it is a hard choice. Laskey which is trusted suggests ATI. Endyn which is trusted suggests Fluidampr. UGH!

Going ATI here just for added measure of safety over the stock unit I think, I am running only 1000 rpm more over stock and making just over 600whp. Nothing crazy but couldnt hurt I figure.
